But it is ever better to let some one else set music to your virtues than to try to write a tune for them yourself. Has anyone a good reason why the Tinker of Banbury should not don Lincoln green? Davip: (Who has been closely examining Tom Potts) Begging your pardon, Master, I doubt if any of us can judge whether the Tinker is a likely candidate or no with all that dirt plastered on him! Rosin Hoop: One of the chief laws of the Green- wood is cleanliness, friend Tinker. LittLe Joun: The Tinker also is a bit-er-er-rough in his speech, Master.

NE exciting day in June two big packing cases were received by the girls in our Junior Red Cross community center at Epehy, France. One from the Hoffman School, Cin- cinnati, Ohio, contained an assortment of dolls. All of them were dressed, and most of them were made by American girls. Many of the dolls had the givers’ names on Red Cross cards tied around their necks, but one wonderful creature had no ticket at all. We named her ‘““‘Mammy’”’ at once, because, though she is only made of a ’ black stocking, she is so generously stuffed that she resembles exactly the comfortable motherly-looking ‘‘mammies”’ of the “Haha” Southern states. She is correctly, dressed too, and our French girls are never tired of examining all the details of her costume and saying: “‘Oh! What a strange red-and-yellow skirt!”’ ‘““Why does she wear the handkerchief on her head ?”’ Another wonderful doll, with no giver’s name on her, is a perfect Indian type, so we named her ‘‘ Minnehaha,” which her new friends immediately shortened to ‘‘ Haha.” On her bare feet she wears a pair of light-blue felt moccasins, edged with pink. Her skirt is of tan felt deeply slashed around the bottom.
